She is beautiful.

-Morning-

Today is a new day and right now I'm heading towards Tenten's house.

"I don't know how many days I haven't attended class but what I know is that I will receive a strong reprimand when I return"

*sigh*

I feel helpless in this matter.

Fixing my relationship with Tenten is more important than school.

-Try-

She is inside her room right now while she is thinking about various things.

*sigh*

A few days ago when the accident with Yubeng happened, she has been stuck in her room because she is in a dilemma.

She is ashamed, very ashamed.

The memory of the things he did with hers still lingers in her mind making her feel embarrassed to interact with hers.

She even lately she has been embarrassed to show herself to her parents.

Just remembering the strange feeling of her makes her want to bury her head under the ground.

Since Yubeng has come she has wanted to answer her call but inevitably the memories come to her mind.

So when she tries to talk about her, hers sounds like the buzzing of a mosquito.

But lately she's gathering courage.

She hopes to get out of this embarrassing situation.

...

Today I went to Tenten's but it was the same result as yesterday so I'm on a walk with Ino right now.

And after visiting some frequent sites I feel satisfied.

These last walks that I am taking make me smile and give me peace of mind.

So I subconsciously see Ino in a new light.

I turn my gaze to her who is at my side and I stare for a few moments before looking away from her.

...

At the end of the day I lie in my bed thinking about the things that have happened to me lately.

Recently, due to a mistake on my part, I discovered that I see Tenten as a special person, but recently I realized that Ino is someone who is gaining a place in my heart (or she had already won it a while ago and I didn't feel it) .

So I close my eyes.

zzz

...

Today when I was about to leave I found a surprise at my door.

I rub my eyes to make sure I haven't seen wrong.

Have this stand at my door.

She is with her head down looking down and from time to time looking up at me.

She appears to be in an embarrassed state as she fidgets her body.

"..."

"..."

I stay silent still a bit dazed but I quickly regain my focus and put on a smile.

"Oh, Tenten how are you, it's nice to see you, what brings you here?"

'Shit, why am I asking if I know why she's here?'

"Um…could we talk for a moment?"

"Y-Yes, then-, how about we go in, it would be better not to stand"

"mn"

She gives me a nod as I quickly step away from her entrance inviting her in.

We both sat on the couch looking at each other.

We both don't speak.

Seeing the situation I decide to break the silence.

I look directly into her eyes showing a serious appearance.

"Tenten, first of all, I want you to forgive me for what she did to you, I swear I didn't mean to-"

"Yes, I know"

She with her eyes still a little averted tells me in a tone that I can clearly hear.

"I know it wasn't your intention...it's just...it scared me a little"

"..."

When I hear her words I feel guilty inside of me.

"But it wasn't your fault, so don't feel guilty..."

She can see the guilt in him because of the tone of voice he has spoken with these last few days when she came to her door.

Hearing his words, he falls silent.

'I thought she was mad so I didn't want to leave her room but it seems I thought wrong'

Seeing that things are about to get awkward I quickly give my answer.

"This being the case, then we can work things out, although I don't remember what I did to you (But I can catch a bit of it still), I think it would be appropriate for me to compensate you with something; if you could ask me for something that is within my means then I will do what I can to fulfill it"

These are my honest thoughts.

I don't know if it's because she heard that she didn't remember that she breathed a sigh of relief (or disappointment).

"So what do you want?"

I ask tentatively.

"Mm?, well... I don't know"

"Well, don't rush, you can think about it calmly and tell me later"

"Alright"

I give a partially forced smile.

The scene falls silent again.

There are probably so many things that they want to say to each other but when they want to speak the words don't come out.

They want to ask but they don't know what to ask.

Probably later the things they wanted to talk about will come to mind but right now the scene is falling into an awkward silence.

When Yubeng wants to break the tension, Tenten steps forward.

"I think he should go"

"If we meet later..."

So I say goodbye to her.

As I close the door many thoughts run through my head.

*sigh*

Even though we just spoke a couple of words this seems unbelievably enough to set things right.

But there is something that has me worried.

Today I have been able to notice as if she was holding back from speaking.

Compared to the past I feel that she is becoming more reserved.

'Cause I'm feeling like a wall is building between us.

This has me a little bummed out but not enough to last.

I am confident that after a while, things between the two will return to normal.

(or so I hope)

...

I went to class today and received a very strong reprimand from the teacher and make-up homework.

"Don't do that again, you're only going to delay your learning, do you hear me?"

"Yes..."

...

Although the teacher gave me a reprimand and homework, this time contrary to my expectations he didn't punish me by holding buckets in the hall but made me go to my seat.

When I went to my seat Naraku wasted no time asking questions about what I did all this time.

I had to answer his questions by telling him half the truth with some lies.

His questions end when the teacher yells at him from the blackboard.

"Tsk so boring..."

After Naraku's headache I was able to concentrate in class normally.

-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------

If you want, you could give me some ideas about scenes that I could do in the future, I'm open to ideas.

And lately I feel that the scenes are a bit crude if you notice something like that then you could let me know so I can fix it in future chapters.
